Social Spider encouraged people with mental health difficulties to blog about their day over a series of four calendar dates across the year. It has amassed a public online collection of ‘a day in the life’ of individuals living with mental health problems.

Centre for Mental Health and Social Spider are looking for two people to work alongside a Centre for Mental Health researcher to code over 700 blogs each to support the analysis of this project.

The intern employment is with Social Spider, a social enterprise which delivers research, writes, publishes and trains services as well as running local and national projects, it will be based with Centre for Mental Health, a national charity at our offices near London Bridge.
